Traffic jam! Students from Mrs. Gilbert's class worked on coding and robotics during Mrs. Allen's computer class. Each student used a Marty the Robot to move a Hess truck without to touching the truck. Mrs. Allen teaches STEM through coding and robotics in order to help students build 21st-Century skills for a successful future.

News from the Learning Log: Students in K-5 visited the Learning Log to read If Picasso painted a Snowman by Amy & Greg Newbold as part of a collaboration with Mrs. Johns' Art classes. After reading the story, students tore a die cut paper snowman that represented the water cycle, and rearranged the pieces (snow) to form another snowman. In art, students are drawing chickens (K-2) or Killdeer (3-5) in the artistic style of Van Gogh, Seurat, or Liechtenstein.
